Piece of shit tire is losing 10psi per day. I can't afford a tire inflator.
I haven't been able to afford to get it fixed. So every day before and after work I check the pressure before driving, then stop to put more air in it @ the free air pump (f**k paying $0.50 per squirt).
This morning it was 35psi - good to go.
Drive to work and do my normal work day.
Go outside and the tire is completely flat. Completely.
Apparently I'm an adult now and everyone I know is asleep, preparing for their work day tomorrow.
The only person awake in my family doesn't have her drivers license nor a car.
TrueParadox isn't answering his phone - I bet he's playing daoc - I will get him later.
So now I'm waiting on a cab to take me home (to get Spare Cash fund), then to Wal-Mart (to get Air Inflator), then back to Car.
Cab fare? I'm guessing will be $40 or so.
Cost of the inflator? Wal Mart says $19.99 to $40.
4 suicide pills? I don't know. Someone hook me up.

I'd work 20 years of my life and live in personal poverty, sacrificing my hopes and dreams just so you can have a f*****g place to eat and to put you and your kids through school, man.

just so you know, if you have a hole in your tire and it's fixable, it's like 5-10 bucks for a repair at your local gas station

Back this statement up by pay-palling me enough money to cover whatever expenses you say I'm 'cheap' for not paying.

2 things that are always good to have with a car, besides keys and gas are a spare and jack.
No one ever told you that?

Ha!

i would ride it off a cliff into a large body of water, preferably a deep one so that it cannot be recovered easily.
don't forget to KEEP the keys, that way you can claim it was stolen.

i don't know enough about it.
but i'm sure torching it will be amusing.

This would give a higher tangible return-on-investment for my time at realpoor than anything else I have done here.
God bless you sir.

Ha! I am in the same situation, except my tire is 5 psi per day and the gas station is right around the corner. Also, work is in town so even if it's totally flat my ass is driving it home.

You don't go out on dates? 
Actually, I had a girlfriend before who really hated spending money (mine or hers) eating out, but even we wound up in a restaurant once a week. Sometimes it was a tough sell, but both of us worked alot of hours and the kitchen is the last place I wanted to be after 10+ hours of working/driving. I'm sure the permanent veto on fast-food didn't help my case any either.
If she's seeing a guy now, he apparently isn't throwing a flag on her fast-food plays... she's packing on some weight.
